Tuesday 20 September 2016 13:09 CET | News

Contego has announced that Luup has selected Contegos platform to carry out checks on companies and individuals to help ensure compliance with AML and KYC requirements.

Luup carried out due diligence on a number of identity verification providers and found that Contego’s fraud reduction platform, is a platform able to solve its checking requirements. To comply with AML regulation, Luup has to understand the companies it works with: verifying the entity exists, understanding the ownership structure and tracing the company hierarchy to identify beneficial owners.

As part of Luup’s KYC obligations it has to run checks on individuals: identity verification, identity documents, PEP and sanction lists and negative watchlists. Contego worked with Luup to create a bespoke risk scorecard to manage the complexity of onboarding and monitoring customers, checking both people and companies simultaneously, combining results from multiple sources accurately, all delivered in real-time via a single API.
